Drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which serve the unique needs of seniors and older adults may be more beneficial for this particular group of people. Senior and older adult focused recovery can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel when entering treatment and it offers support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific difficulties they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less likely to engage fully in group sessions with the younger age group who are not familiar with their age related and generational unique challenges. Addiction treatment centers which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can provide a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and comfort to work through the challenges to treatment.
Treatment staff at substance abuse treatment facilities for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to work on age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any specific mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in rehab. Program materials for seniors and older adults may be delivered with audio or verbal impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment therapists who are prepared to accommodate such needs of older clients by the way group and individual counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately apt to the abuse of alcohol and prescription drugs, and as part of treatment many require medical intervention not just through safe detox but to figure out which medical drugs should be continued or eliminated as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will prolong their life.
